Description

Distributed optical fiber sound sensing device and sound detection method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of optical fiber sensors, in particular to a distributed optical fiber sound sensing device and a sound detection method.
Background
The distributed optical fiber sensor detects external physical quantities around the optical fiber such as temperature, stress, vibration and the like by utilizing various scattered signals fed back by an optical fiber loop, and has been widely applied in various fields. The distributed optical fiber vibration sensor uses the coherent intensity change formed by Rayleigh scattering signals generated in the optical fiber, so that the distributed optical fiber vibration sensor has extremely high detection sensitivity. Such sensors are also known as phase-type optical time domain reflectometers.
The conventional phase optical time domain reflectometer adopts a periodically transmitted pulse single frequency laser source as a light source to be detected, and the pulse formation is generally obtained by modulating a single frequency laser (including a semiconductor laser and a fiber laser) working with a continuous wave through an acousto-optic modulator or an electro-optic modulator. The optical signal transmitted into the fiber to be detected is thus essentially a single-frequency laser source with a slightly broader spectrum, which is affected by the pulse width.
When the single-frequency pulse laser source is transmitted along the optical fiber, the generated Rayleigh scattering signals can interfere with the local signals to generate intensity detection demodulation signals, and the intensity detection demodulation signals can also be obtained by detecting interference signals among the Rayleigh scattering signals generated at different positions. Better detection sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio can generally be obtained if the intensity of the intensity detection signal corresponding to the scattering location is sufficiently large. Otherwise, if the intensity signal of the corresponding position is very small, the signal to noise ratio of the detected position is often too low, and the sensitivity cannot meet the measurement requirement. The intensity variation of the detection signal mainly comes from the influence of the initial phase variation and the polarization state of the Rayleigh scattering signal of the single-frequency pulse laser source in the optical fiber, and at some interference cancellation points, the signal intensity becomes small, so that the detection of the signal is seriously influenced, and the system performance is deteriorated.
Aiming at the problem that the detection performance is affected by more interference cancellation points of the distributed optical fiber sensor in the prior art, no effective solution exists at present.
